Can you create a "block" firewall rule in Advanced Installer ?

I purchased a licence and would like to apply a "block" firewall rule to my installer, I saw there's a section for firewall exception, but I would like to block all connexions of the program to the internet.
Best Regards.

Hello and welcome to our forums,

Unfortunately, for now, it looks like we do not have out of the box support for your request.

I have added this on our TODO list of improvements and hopefully this will be added in a future version of Advanced Installer.

Until then, the only solution would be creating a custom action that changes the "Action" of the rule you create from "Allow the connection" to "Block".
